To: [log in to unmask]
> Dear Arlisians,
>
> We recently received a copy of Monica Bonvicini's Cut:
> http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/233687110
>
> Anyone else out there wondering what to do about the uncut pages
> in this
> volume? Are you having your preservation unit cut them apart? Or
> are you
> leaving them uncut?
>
> I can see arguments for both sides. Cutting the pages might ruin a
> uniquefeature of this work. But leaving them uncut could result in
> damage as users
> try to peek in to see the images. Thoughts, oh fount of collective
> wisdom?
> (To be clear, this is NOT the special edition of the work that
> comes signed,
> numbered, and with a blade. That would present a whole other set of
> interesting questions.)
>
> Many thanks in advance,
> MK
